Lights-Out directories migration utilities
For customers with previously installed management processors, HP created two utilities to simplify the
migration of these processors to management by directories. The two utilities are the HPQLOMIG utility
and the HPQLOMGC utility. These utilities automate some of the migration steps necessary for the
management processors to support directory services.
The HPQLOMIG utility automates the process of migrating management processors by creating objects in
the directory corresponding to each management processor and associating them to a role. HPQLOMIG
has a GUI and provides a wizard for implementing or upgrading large numbers of management
processors.
HPQLOMGC is a command line utility that enables you to migrate individual management processors.
Used with Systems Insight Manager, HPQLOMGC upgrades the firmware of the management processor,
(if necessary), HPQLOMGC configures the management processor, and configures the directory settings.
HPQLOMGC creates a device object in the directory using the name in the XML file or the network name
(depending on whether or not you selected to create device objects on the command line) and associates
the device object to a role. You can launch by itself or from within a script (for example, a batch file or
Perl script).
Compatibility
HPQLOMIG and HPQLOMGC run on Microsoft® Windows® versions that support the Microsoft® .NET
Framework. The Microsoft® .NET Framework is required. Additional information and download of the
.NET framework can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/net/. Both utilities support the following
operating systems:
• Active Directory
• Windows® 2000
• Windows® Server 2003
• Novell eDirectory 8.6.2
• Red Hat Linux 7.2
• Red Hat Linux 7.3
• Windows® 2000
• NetWare 6.0
